The new Quality Check Shift Report shows all quality checks done during the selected shift(s). For each order all quality checks are listed with execution time(s), results and the responsible crew member. If a quality check has expired or failed it is color highlighted.

Additionally, the Quality Check Shift Report contains a shift summary with the attendance times of the crew members, the number of quality checks per crew member, and an overview of this shift’s passed, failed, and expired quality checks.

With the new Order Data Transfer Report you can download the order data transfer history displayed on the PC‑Topp.NET Order Transfer page in PDF format. This gives you an easy way to output e.g. all transfer errors during the last two weeks for printout, emailing etc.

There are two ways to create this report:

• Order Data Transfer Information by Category During Default Period of Time
  On the Order Transfer page you can click the PDF icon in the header of each category (new, updated, deleted errors) to create a report with the order transfers in just this category during the period of time displayed on the page (14 days by default; longer periods can be set on request). 
  
• Free Choice of Category and Period of Time of Order Data Transfer Information
  
  Clicking the “Order Data Transfer History” link in the bottom of the Order Transfer page will open a new page that offers further options for customizing the report. You can select
  
  
  • Whether you want to output all or just selected categories of order transfers,
  • The period of time the Order Data Transfer Report should cover.

The Personnel tab of the PC-Topp.NET Machine Terminal has been equipped with the password-protected possibility to sign in as an engineer (provided the user is marked as engineer in the Personnel Numbers page).

With this new functionality, an engineer can leave comments on the problems he has attended to that will be displayed in the shift report. Besides he can make sure that the time spent fixing a problem will be registered as such.

The dialog for entering comments on articles available in the General Tab of the Machine Terminal has been enhanced to allow entering more than just article comments. It now offers the following options:

• Article Comment
  As before, comments are saved for the article in question and will be displayed at each run of this article.
• New: Production Comment
  Comments are saved in the statistics for this order and will be displayed in the shift report.
• New: Internal Complaints
  Internal complaint comments are saved in the statistics along with their complaint cause and will be displayed in the Internal Complaints report. (This comment type only is available if there is at least one internal complaint defined in the Downtime Causes page.)

In the future another machine specific Post It-like comment type is planned to be implemented.

The Article Performance Report which used to be available only for the conversion machines has now been released for the corrugator(s), too.

As its conversion machine counterpart, the report lists orders by article. It shows information on produced vs. waste quantity, production time, speed, and trim for the individual orders as well as the totals of the article they belong to. (Partial runs are greyed out.)

As of now PC-Topp lets you define default reasons for downtimes and waste. This feature prevents unaccounted-for downtimes and waste in the statistics. (You have to use the Detailed Waste functionality for this feature to be available for waste.)

In the Waste Reasons page and the Downtime Causes page there is a new option to mark the default reason in the detailed view of each waste reason resp. downtime cause. If this is checked the default reason is marked with an asterisk in the overview. Setting a default reason has the following effects:

• Default Waste Reason
  If Detailed Waste Entry is enabled and a default waste reason is defined PC-Topp automatically assigns this default waste reason for waste quantities below a certain customizable limit.
• Default Downtime Cause
  All downtimes the user doesn’t specify a cause for are automatically assigned the default downtime cause.

The new report offers downtime analysis for the conversion machines with information on number, duration and totals per downtime cause.

The Production Progress Report which is available for the  conversion machines and the corrugator gives an overview of production speed and efficiency by machine including graphical representations for at-a-glance information.

The Statistics section in PC-Topp.NET has been thoroughly revised and reorganised to make the PC-Topp reports more accessible. At the core of new structure is the new Statistics page which presents all production reports available in PC-Topp in a clearly organised list view.

In continuation of the reorganisation of the PC-Topp.NET Statistics section, the quick selection page for the most frequently used production reprots has been switched to the new PDF reports (where available). Nevertheless the classical reports remain available. (Link "Old Version of this Page")
